Why

The Swiss governement publishes daily lots of information scattered on the internet (newsletters, sparql endpoints, RTS/SSR/RSI, APIs, ...). We aim to make it more accessible with RSS (and Atom).

RSS is a standard web feed (compatible with blogs, journals, YouTube and much more!) that you can access on a multitude of rss readers on all your device. For more information, see All about RSS.

Feeds

All the data is already public. We gather it with the following methods :

  • SPARQL requests
  • opendata.swiss API

AI Disclaimer

AI (ChatGPT 5.5 and Deepl) was used in this project for :

  • crafting the SPARQL requests (a language I had never heard of before this project)
  • minor debugging when alternative methods did not solve the problems.
  • German, Italian and Romansh translations.
  • help with Python libraries (that I did not knew/used before)

All code, text and files in this repo was reviewed by a human (me).
